adventurous dark mysterious tense fast-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? It's complicated
• Loveable characters? It's complicated
• Diverse cast of characters? Yes
• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

3.0

First note: Does the dog die? No. But it definitely doesn’t feel like that through the book, so keep your wits up.
Overall, this was a fun read. Kind of a combination of The Ruins, The Descent and The Hunger.
Not super gory, not super scary but I had a good time.
